I think there was a effort to transplant Elk, but it was back in the 60's I think and it didn't take. The Elk in VA now are coming over from KY and I thinkit's legalto harvest them during deer season.
This is correct. I think the DGIF are affraid of diseases which is why they have not started that program-which is also why you are free to kill them during the deer season. They really don't want them in VA. Hopefully one day though...
